4)one possible version:
chinese students celebrate their birthdays in different ways, but the most common way is to hold a birthday party, at which friends get together to have fun drinking, singing and dancing. on the birthday, one usually receives nice gifts and good wishes from friends and parents. sometimes, parents will prepare a special dinner or a cake to show their love for their children.
since birthday celebration is one of the important activities in one’s life, it can be done in more meaningful ways. for example, we can buy some flowers or cook a delicious meal for our mothers on that day. in this way, we express thanks to our parents in return for their love.
